Not sure what to say?

Just learned of Bruce's passing. Bruce was a great friend to me for many years. We enjoyed many great times together here in Las Vegas as members of our United Baseball League (The UBL). He even invited us to Game 4 of the 1998 World Series (Yankees vs Padres) and we saw the Yankees win it all. Such a great guy. RIP old friend. You are missed.

Read the notice about Bruce in the UNM alum magazine, my condolences to the family. Bruce was a member of the speech and debate club ahead of me in high school and we looked up to him, he demonstrated to us how to be professional and to make a cogent argument. At UNM I would see him rushing from class to class in a suit and tie, an example of a serious student to us all. We would visit from time to time and it was good to know somebody else from Bloomfield. I didn't see him after college but...

I just learned of Bruce's passing from one of his fraternity brothers. Bruce was an adversary debater when I was in high school, but a good friend during undergrad at UNM. He introduced me to KUNM radio, helped me in my student political campaigns, and was a great classmate in the communications department.

Bruce was a great person to work with, fun to talk to, and great at his job.

It is with deepest condolences I send this message to the Donisthorpe family. Bruce was a dear friend to me ever since high school. He will be missed by me. Rest in peace, Bruce

I am filled with tears. The last time we met was at a bite of Belgium. You were very helpful and kind and contributed your best towards my project. I'm heart broken that you couldn't live to see your name acknowledged in my research. With tearful eyes we watched you, and saw you pass away. Although we loved you dearly, we could not make you stay. A golden heart stopped beating, hardworking hands at rest. I believe God broke our hearts to prove to us, He only takes the best.
Rest in...

Our deepest condolences to the Family. Christine, Paul, and Brian our thoughts and prayers are with you at this time. May God fill you with His presence, peace, comfort, and love..........
